problem accessing MS Access DB

Hello, I am having problems accessing an MS Access database through PHP and thought maybe I missed something in the installation process. I set up a System DSN for the database and went back and forth with a member of the PHP database mailing list and he can't figure out why it isn't working. I am running Windows XP, PHP 4.3.1, and Apache 1.3.27. After installing PHP I copied php4ts.dll and php4apache.dll to my Windows/system32 folder. I copied php-recommended.ini to the Windows folder, renamed it to php.ini and edited the doc_roots line. Here's my code: $connection = odbc_connect("mctadb", "username", "") || die("cannot open database"); $sql = "SELECT * FROM Meeting"; $result = odbc_exec($connection, $sql) || die("cannot prepare result"); I get the following error message in my browser: Warning: odbc_exec(): supplied argument is not a valid ODBC-Link resource in c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\test2.php on line 30 cannot prepare result What am I doing wrong? ---------------------- Beverly Steiner steiner277@charter.net
